Backups are a good thing for this. If you don't have money for a
usb/firewire disk, cd burner or old second computer, you can also store
your files in your homedir at the university.
Computer hardware will die for sure. You just never know when, but when
it does, it is a real PITA.
Backups not only protect against user error, but also bad programs,
power failures, broken hardware, etc. You can't do without.

Did you try the newest reiserfsprogs? They are at 3.6.13 now, and seem
to get quite a bit better every release.
